Lr, Photomerge and Lens Corrections

I use to apply an import preset to all my photos that just enables the lens corrections. That's my doubt: when I make a pano with Photomerge in CS5 (so I select photos, right click, Edit In, Merge to Panorama in Photoshop..) I have to select or not the "Vignette removal" and "Geometric Distortion Correction" features? Photomerge takes count on the adjustments made in Lr? I've the doubt because in the source files list are elencated .CR2 files, not TIFF/PSD..
I made some tries:
1. Lens corrections in Lr/Lens corrections in Photomerge
2. Lens corrections in Lr
3. Lens corrections in Photomerge
Try 1 is a little bit stretched compared to tries 2 and 3.
Tries 2 and 3 aren't totally identical. They not match 100% even if are almost equivalent.
What do you do guys when it comes to panos and lens corrections? Thanks

I think I'll make all the adjustments in Lightroom, lens correction too and leave the two options in Photomerge blank. I don't know why there are little differences between the lens corrections in Photomerge and Lightroom, I thought it's the same module, but that's it..

Odd Issue Editing in Photoshop with color and lens corrections

First off, I'm on LR 4.4 and PS CS6 (Camera Raw 7.4.0.137) using ProPhoto RGB as my LR colorspace and have my PS color settings as Working Space: ProPhoto RGB and my color management policies to preserve embedded profiles.
When I right click on a DNG in LR and choose "Edit in Photoshop", LR sends it to PS and PS does its "Reading in Camera Raw Format" and opens the image. However, the colors are off (very muted) and any lens corrections I've applied in LR are missing. My monitor (iMac on OSX 10.8) is calibrated with a Spyder. I've also noticed that if I choose to edit in another application, it renders the tiff fine and the color and lens corrections are correct in the tiff.
Anyone have any ideas what my issue is?
Thanks,
Matt
ETA: After some experimenting, it seems that the "Adobe Standard" profile is what gets sent to Photoshop. The rest (Camera Landscape, Portrait, etc.) are ignored. What's going on here?

Sounds like you need to reset your warning dialog. Preferences>General>Prompts [Reset all warning dialogs]
Then try it again and make certain of the three choices you are Editing a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments.

2 question about GPU and Lens correction ,cs5

Hi
i have 2 questions about Gpu and lens correction in Cs5
1)Filter->lens correction->search online
i get often and almost every connection time out at the first click on search online , at the second click i get no online profile
is it normal?
2) question is about Gpu
it run faster , but talking about ajustament layer
like saturation or vibrance for example
i found with the gpu on , a light slow refresh compared with gpu off
i have set cache levels 6 ,history 20
i guess are the defaul
well i add a saturation layer and move the saturation slide ,increase o decrease saturation
with Gpu Off , the changes are immedially , i mean i can see in real time the increase o decrease of saturation
with Gpu On it takes a few(very few) time more
again is normal ?
don't be angry , i'm going to buy cs5 and i'm unsecure ... the price make a big role
thanks

For what it's worth, I also see a timeout on the first [ Search Online ] click, after about half a minute delay. Second click turns up results immediately. This happens each time Lens Correction is started, even without restarting Photoshop, and in both 32 and 64 bit versions. Also note that I started with one profile listed by default (though from the wrong camera) for my 40D with 28-135 zoom.
I alsow noticed that I was seeing progress bar activity in the Lens Correction dialog while I was typing this (even though Lens Correction was NOT the active window) every time I hit the 'L' key. Strange.

How to Save Camera Calibration and Lens Correction in Camera raw 6.1

I downloaded and installed the Camera Raw 6.1 release candidate. I open an image and set the camera calibration and the lens correction to auto for Nikon. I save these settings as new Camera raw defaults, but when I open other images, the changes were not made. How can I save these items as defaults?
Swila

Swila, were your "other images" previously edited in Camera Raw? I.e., do they already have saved image settings? The defaults that you save via the flyout menu will only apply to new images, or if you reset an existing image to the defaults. (e.g., choose "Camera Raw Defaults" from the flyout menu).

Lightroom 5 and Lens Correction-issue

Hi, sometimes in LR4 I used the lens correction. Most pictures nowadays I take with an old NIkon 24-85:2.8-4 lens. When I tick lens correction and choose as manufacturer Nikon it automatically gave me the Nikon 24-85:3.5-4.5 (as the 2.8-4-version is not present), but usable. In LR5 it always gives me a Nikon Coolpix-lens and I have to manually change it. Quite annoying.

LR has not automatically assigned that lens profile, since it does not exactly correspond.
But it's no biggie...after manually selecting a particular lens profile, you can set that as a user default to be used in future (for any other pictures that report the same lens data as the current active image does).
It's an option in the drop-down menu within the lens profile panel.
Your LR default settings or import preset affecting these future imported images, will just need to ensure that Profile is active, and that the selection of profile is set to Default (instead of Manual) within this same drop-down menu.
Hereafter, LR will adopt whatever profile is the factory default or (as an override) is the user selected default, or (failing both) no profile at all, for each image imported.

LR 3, Pshop CS3 and lens corrections: wha'?

Perform lens corrections in LR3. Open in Photoshop CS3.
And the lens corrections are not applied. Repeatable.
Right now I'm having to finish the PSD, the syncing the (ignored) lens corrections from the raw file to the PSD.
Where's the hidden Do What I Asked command for lens corrections?

Hm. I would assume that LR3's engine would render the PSD, then open it in Pshop.
Because (thanks to your note) I see that I can export a righteously-rendered PSD and, as a post-process, have it open in Pshop immediately.
Thanks, Lee Jay.

Scale difference between Camera Raw and Lens Correction Filter in CS6

I have the latest Camera Raw plugin (8.6.0.254). When I open an NEF file from a D800, the resulting image is 4912x7360 pixels, whether I apply distortion correction or not.
If I load the NEF file, do not apply distortion correction in Camera Raw, but then apply it via the Lens Correction Filter, the image must be rescaled to approximately 4840x7252 (some 98.53%) so that it matches the results of the Camera Raw plugin (minus the missing pixels around all four sides, of course).
Anyone else notice this (particularly in newer versions of Photoshop)? Is there a way to prevent this cropping? The amount of distortion on the lens (35mm) is minimal and, regardless of that, I would have expected Camera Raw and the Lens Correction filter to output identical images after distortion correction, since the lens profile is the same.

To see if that can be replicated, we'd need to now the exact version of CS6 you're running (e.g. on Mac you should be on Photoshop CS6 13.0.6) and the exact version of your OS.

Capture Sharpening & Lens Corrections- Does the order matter?

Okay, I think I understand the concept that all of the changes made in Lightroom are metadata edits, and so it does not matter what order you make changes to your image. So using the lightroom controls for sharpening and lens corrections (chromatic aberration, etc.) is just fine.
But what if you are doing your capture sharpening outside of lightroom, say using photokit sharpener in photoshop?
Does the use of the lens correction tools in lightroom negatively affect the capture sharpening done later in photoshop? Ideally I'd like to do all of the possible image adjustments in lightroom, without doing any sharpening, and then head over to photoshop for capture sharpening and any further photoshopping that is necessary.
But if I do lens correction changes in lightroom, will that cause a problem? Do I need to forego doing any lens correcting in lightroom if I am going to be doing capture sharpening in photoshop after the fact?
Thanks for the help.

I shoot in Raw. I only recently got Photokit Sharpener, so I am trying to work that in to my workflow, in which case I would turn off Lightroom's default sharpening.
I think I may be worried about something that isn't really a problem, but I had heard that when you adjust for chromatic aberrations, it adjusts the color channels, for example moving the red channel in relation to the blue channel, in order to eliminate the color fringing. If that is the case, then I was wondering whether sharpening applied outside of Lightroom would have to be applied after the chromatic aberration adjustments had been made or if it could be applied before without causing problems.
My current plan is to just apply the capture sharpening in Photoshop after all LR adjustments have been made, and hopefully that will work out fine.

Has RX-100 Lens correction disappeared again? post RAW Camera Update 4.09

On a fairly new imac running 10.8.5 and iphoto 11 (9.4.3) A further RAW camera Update seems to have returned an issue with a Sony RX100, and lens correction has dissappeared.

RAW support 5.03 is now available and it reports to correct this issue

BUG (?): CA correction off after reenabling lens corrections

I would like to inform all about an (in my view) incorrect behaviour of LR:
In order to speed up my workflow i disable detail and lens corrections for all images immediately after the import (select all, auto sync is on, turn off detail and lens corrections). With this panels turned off I can do basic operations like cropping etc much, much quickier. I shoot badminton sport and have to process hundreds of images.
After the basic corrections I reenable detail and lens corrections for all images which should restore the previous settings of this panels or at least the default (ISO specific) settings (which is the same in my case). But the "Remove Chromatic Aberrations" remains off, even if it was on before and on by default for all my lenses! I consider this to be a bug. It isn't a big problem because it can be turned on manually but it can easily be forgotten.

I disable and reenable the panels "Lens Corrections" and "Details" with the switch on the upper left. The tooltip says "Turn off lens corrections".
You can test it with the following steps:
1) Be shure that the panel "Lens Corrections" is enabled and "Enable Profile Corrections" and "Remove Chromatic Aberration" are active for all images.
2) Select 2 or more images and (with "AutoSync" on!) disable the panel "Lens Corrections" (see above).
3) Enable the panel "Lens Corrections" and check the "Remove Chromatic Aberration" option: it is on for the first image, but OFF (!!!) for the second one (and all others if you have selected more).
"Remove Chromatic Aberration" should not be turned off for the other images. Reenabling this panel should just reactivate all previous settings (or the default settings)!!!
FYI: All my default ISO specific camera and lens settings have this options on. Clicking "Reset" activates all this options. So why it gets off disabling and reenabling this panel? I consider this to be a bug.

Lens Correction For Nikon 24-120

I use this lens as a periodic walk around lens. As it does not show up in LightRoom 3 Lens Correction Develop module, I have to export the nef file into CS5 and open lens crrection there. It still does not show up but if I do a search there within that Lens Correction filter, it is found and I can apply the correction, and then take the .psd file now back to LightRoom 3. Now I have two files. The original .nef file and a psd file, the latter of which only has the lens correction applied to it.
Is there a way to d/l the lens correction profile for this lens and include it in the list already supplied by CS5 and LightRoom3. This really is a pain to correct the shot vis this method and a waste of time. Thanks for your help..
Tunney

My OS is XP. Yes I found the folder you mention but don't see a list of
profiles in there. When you take the file into PS5 and go to Lens
Correction, the profile for that lens is not included. But there is a search
capability there which when hit, searches the web for the profile and brings
up the Nikon profile for that lens. It is probably made by Nikon itself. It
is not marked as a community profile but as a Nikon profile for that lens..
I should send you a jpeg file with that lens and let you go into CS5 and
Lens Correction and do the search at which time you will see what I am
referring to. Unless you have this lens yourself, you would be able tyo do
the same thing.
I don't know if I am making myself clear here. It is not a community profile
that is found in the search in CS5 but is listed as a Nikon profile for the
24-120 lens. I don't use this lens that much but do periodically use it as a
walk around lens.

Lens Correction and JPEGs

Hi,
I'm new to LR. I've spent the last two months watching every tutorial, practicing with a portfolio/video instructional off the Adode site and reorganizing my own photos and folders on my computer.
I finally took the "bold" step to put a few of my photos into LR. All my photos are from either a Nikon 3000 or 3100 with the same lens AF-S DX Nikkor 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G ED.
Also, all my photos are JPEGs.
1) In Lens Correction > Profile > Enable Profile Correction there are 3 options
Default (no make/model options)
Auto (no make/model options)
Custom > when I click this I get the model and Adobe profile for the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G ED
Is the Adobe profile the same for both lenses? The 14-24 and the lens on my camera - the 18-135?
Default and Auto look the exact same. If I click Custom, the image becomes a little more exposed. To my eye, Default/Auto look better.
2) Also, should I "check" chromatic aberration for all my photos? I'm not sure how this feature works in LR with JPEGs.
3) Considering where I am and my skills at this point, what is the best recommendation going forward, for learning LR and working with my JPEGs.
Since I'm going to be essentially working only with JPEGS for a while, what lens correction should I use with these photos? Default/Auto/Custom?
4) Are there any other settings that I need to pay attention to with the camera/lens/file type that I am using while trying to learn LR?
I'm starting to realize from my readings, that JPEGS will have a more limited range of development in LR and "LR will display only the profiles available for the file type of the selected image." Lens profile support | Lightroom 5, 4, 3 | Photoshop CS6, CS5 | Camera Raw 8, 7, 6
I want to become a more serious amateur and enthusiastic photographer, but I also don't want to spend 15 minutes editing/developing every semi-decent photo I take.
As an aside, my 3100 has a shutter problem, so I will be upgrading at some point (probably Micro 4/3) and I plan to explore shooting RAW or a combination of RAW/JPEG somewhere down the road.
Thanks
Andrew

As I understand lens correction profiles, most are written for RAW photos only, and there are only a few profiles written for JPGs. That would explain why you don't see your specific lens under Custom.
2) Also, should I "check" chromatic aberration for all my photos? I'm not sure how this feature works in LR with JPEGs.
I'm certainly not the biggest expert on chromatic aberration, but it seems to me that the chromatic aberration algorithms are looking for certain types of coloration at "edges", and I don't see why that would be different for JPGs compared to RAWs.
But I'm confused by the actual question ... checking the box and seeing if it makes the photo better seems so simple that I don't really understand why you had to ask the question.
3) Considering where I am and my skills at this point, what is the best recommendation going forward, for learning LR and working with my JPEGs.
Since I'm going to be essentially working only with JPEGS for a while, what lens correction should I use with these photos? Default/Auto/Custom?
Again, the learning process in Lightroom is ... just do it. You can't harm your photos, you can always undo whatever you did that you didn't like. The lens correction you choose is the one that makes the photo's appearance look best to you.
4) Are there any other settings that I need to pay attention to with the camera/lens/file type that I am using while trying to learn LR?
Any setting and any slider and any tool might be the right one for your photo. There is no general setting that EVERYONE uses, as the reason software provides options is that some people want it one way, and other people want it a different way.
I want to become a more serious amateur and enthusiastic photographer, but I also don't want to spend 15 minutes editing/developing every semi-decent photo I take.
The learning curve can be difficult, but as I said, editing your photos will never harm your originals, and you can always undo whatever you did. So ... just do it.
I am concerned that even as a beginner, you think it might take you 15 minutes to edit a single photo. Unless you are doing a HUMONGUS amount of brushing, this should never take 15 minutes, even for a beginner. Yes, of course if you want everything to be absolutely PERFECT, then it will take longer, but there really is no such thing as a PERFECT photo. Your goal ought to be (in my opinion) making the photos look GOOD, and learning what the sliders and tools do as you go. And certainly there is no unique determination of what a GOOD photo is, a photo that looks GOOD to you may not look good to someone else, but that's kind of irrelevant, its your photo, it should only matter that it looks GOOD to you.
You said you watched tutorials, are these tutorials helping, or not? Do you feel you have learned the basic purpose of (some of) the develop sliders and develop tools, or not?

Lens correction and chromatic fringe - broken in CS5 ?

Hello, chromatic aberration correction has changed since CS3.
It's limited to ONE pixel correction, or what ? It seems i cant get strong cyan/red bands anymore, i used it as an artistic effect and i need it back. Any way to have it behave like before? I'm not interested in manual workflow (moving manually RGB channels), thanks.
Paolo

It definitely seems different between cs3 and cs5.
I don't believe there is a way to get the same effect in cs5's Filter>Lens Correction and it's
not broken just improved i guess.
You might try a pixel bender filter called Convergence (ships with pixel bender plugin) or Color Separation Effect
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail&loc=en_us&extid=2422 029
You would need to install the pixel bender plugin into photoshop cs5 from the bottom left of this page to use the above filters:

Micro Four Thirds lens correction and Lightroom

Obviously LR seems to use some of the lens correction information it gets from Micro Four Thirds cameras. This shows when compared to results from RAW converters that don't.
I have noticed this for my Olympus OM-D and the 12-50 mm zoom. Is that the reason why there is no lens profile for that lens in Lightroom? And is this the case for all MFT lenses?

Lens Correction in Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS4

I just upgraded to Lightroom 3 and make use of the lens correction feature in the develop module. After doing all my
adjustments in develop I click ctrl-E to take the photo into Photoshop so I can tweak Levels. I noticed that the lens correction adjustments do not seem to be recognized by CS4 when the photo opens up.
Do I have to upgrade to CS5 to get the lens correction adjustments in LR3 recognized or am I doing something wrong. Thanks

I am using Lightroom 3.4, x64, and Photoshop CS5 (12.0.3 x64) on Win 7 OS.
I might add that, based upon my situation, limited knowledge & experience, I have a number of images ( aprox 200), taken with the same camera/lens combination, for which I want to take advantage of what seem to me the most useful features of each software package: in this case, the ability of Lightroom to apply common "development", first in lens correction and, later at the end, miscellaneous common settings; but, in the middle rotation & crop unique to each image.
Am I missing something, for I would think my situation not uncommon?
